Airbrushing my favourite colour PINK (if i was a girl).

Well a small text update i started on airbrushing the most parts of my aegis.
Got all the pink parts in their new (little bit lighter) pink.
I also gave the white parts a coat of white paint, they look really good.
Trying to get all the parts pained by the end of the weekend, and then i will make a photo update for my fans/readers (if i got any hahahaha).


Do you (my blog-readers) have any nice idea's to make my hg aegis a bit more special.
Got some ideas of my own that i wont tell you yet.

It will be nice to hear some things and please just only visual ideas no mods please.

Finally finished

So here it is still wet from the paint (MG zeta is standing on a piece of plastic to keep it nice and clean).
Well as you can see its pretty big, the MG zeta inside is to give you an idea of the size.
enjoy the pictures and i hope it will give sme of you an idea how to build it (or not lol)




I used matt white paint from a store called Praxis, it was there on paint (the cheapest one) and clear filler for the edges of the plexiglas.




All with all it was nice to build, i had a lot of help from my brother (thanks).
And the total kost was about 80-90 euro, it could be cheaper.
i bought the plexiglas called lexaan wich is many times stronger than glass and the stuff is pretty expensive.
the plexiglas that i was looking for was not for sale in the correct thicknes.
i hoped you enjoyd following this tiny project.

Almost done.

So here are the well promest photo's of my airbrush cabine.
In my opinion it looks really good, it ain't small but i have enough space in it to work on my models with the airbrush. I need to paint the complete cabine to make it look at its best. The cabine is going to be white on the inside and outside. And maybe when im more handy with the airbrush, i will make a drawing with my airbrush on the outside of the cabine. But thats only if im more capable of using the airbrush.


Well here are some nice fresh photo's just made :



This is a photo taken from the front i used pretty much bit's and bolts to put it together. As you can see i did nt remove the protective foil from the plexiglas, i did this because om gonna paint the wood inside and outside. When im painting it the plexiglas will be protected by the foil. When it will be operational i will remove the foil.



Here you can see the side. I drilled more holes in the metal than needed so there are some holes left. The metal is 6 cm wide 1 mm thick and 40 cm high. The metal will also be painted so it wont rust. (my airbrush paint is water based).



Here you can see the backside of the cabine. I made a tiny hole above the fan for the electricity wire.



I made a detailed photo of the bottom side. You can see a bolt with a round head put upside down. This functions as a feet that doesnt damage the surface under the cabine.



And last but not least a close up of the fan. You can see the cable going to the outside (the cable has an on/off switch). The 2 bolts wich are visible in the front are to be taken off, then you can put a filter behind it and put the round plastic part against it. Put the 2 bolts on it and tighten them and the cabine is ready for use.


Well this is it for so much. I will paint it and put some clear silicon filler on the edges of the plexiglas, after thats done i will make a photo with a MG gundam in it so you can see the actual size of it. For more details please ask.
